''Brandy in the Wilderness'' is a 1971 American drama film directed by Stanton Kaye. On December 18, 2013, the Library of Congress announced that this film had been selected for the National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". The film is a partly fictionalized account of the real-life professional and intimate relationship that developed between prodigious filmmaker Kaye and aspiring artist Michaux French, which began when they met in 1965.〔http://www.laweekly.com/news/stanton-kaye-father-of-reinvention-2152374〕 Kaye's character is named "Simon Weiss" and French is named "Brandy," while their actual parents and other friends and acquaintances appear in the film, uncredited and often unnamed. Most of the scenes are depicted with either voiceover or without sound; only a limited number of moments feature live dialogue being delivered by the participants. These are occasional interjections of stock footage from major film productions, still photos of family members and well-known performers, and moments of blank screen featuring hand-dyed colors (which Kaye chose and supervised himself). ==Synopsis== Kaye as Weiss opens the film with a rundown of his history in the film business, describing or depicting important events, people, and locations he deems pertinent. Some scenes and stories are factual, such as Kaye's father's departure from acting work to sell women's clothes at farmer's markets, while others are fictionalized, such as moments purportedly depicting his early student film work. He recounts at length his initial meeting with Brandy when both were living in New York, their initial decision to collaborate on a project, an extended road trip the two of them engage in and simultaneously film, and the breakdown of their relationship soon afterward. Weiss essentially concludes his story by saying that in order to complete the project, he has agreed to co-habitate with Brandy, since she has taken possession of the film elements. At this point, Brandy takes over narration, providing her own similar personal background history, and more importantly, her version of the relationship with Weiss. In her telling of the events previously described by Weiss, the audience is shown many moments of volatality between them, and Weiss' often cruel treatment of her, particularly after she becomes pregnant with his child. At the end of the film, Weiss and Brandy are seen with their newborn daughter and pets in a moment of uneasy but otherwise calm tranquility, and the film ends with Brandy describing that, around the time of her father's funeral, her daughter was first able to stand under her own power, as the final frame depicts the infant standing upright.
